The Dark Ages (Grade 3)

The Dark Ages - Mark Ford

Dark Ages was written to engage young wind band musicians in a story about Knights in shining armour in the Medieval Era. The Music is in 5 short sections;

1. A Knight's Prayer

2. Call to Arms

3. The Battle

4. Soldier's Lament

5. The Unfinished Battle The music introduces the young musician to time signatures not usually exposed to them in most other intermediate works.
